Julian Assange arrested at the Ecuadorian embassy in London.

I hope that is the case, and have said as much in the past to people irl. But I am very skeptical that that will occur. Just hope the key is released.

Also, don't trust new files. If you don't already have them, I highly doubt you will get files that have not been tampered with.

Question: Is it common in the UK for suspects being arrested to have their hands in front of them?

As far as I'm aware yes , when I was arrested I was cuffed in that way.

I really like your thinking and I sure hope that is case!

Same.... We know how Julian Assange reacted after Seth Rich's murder. It was pretty easy to read between the lines and to see how affected he was by his death, but wouldn't comment whether he was the leaker or not. But oddly, JA and wikileaks put a reward on finding the killer(s). If the information Julian has is released before he's in safe custody, he is good as dead, that info kept him alive. Heck, Hilary joked about droning that embassy while Obama was in office. Was she really joking? But once Julian is in US custody, safe, then all info can be released...

Here are the charges being brought on Assange in the US

www.justice.gov...

The indictment alleges that in March 2010, Assange engaged in a conspiracy with Chelsea Manning, a former intelligence analyst in the U.S. Army, to assist Manning in cracking a password stored on U.S. Department of Defense computers connected to the Secret Internet Protocol Network (SIPRNet), a U.S. government network used for classified documents and communications. Manning, who had access to the computers in connection with her duties as an intelligence analyst, was using the computers to download classified records to transmit to WikiLeaks. Cracking the password would have allowed Manning to log on to the computers under a username that did not belong to her. Such a deceptive measure would have made it more difficult for investigators to determine the source of the illegal disclosures.

During the conspiracy, Manning and Assange engaged in real-time discussions regarding Manning’s transmission of classified records to Assange. The discussions also reflect Assange actively encouraging Manning to provide more information. During an exchange, Manning told Assange that “after this upload, that’s all I really have got left.” To which Assange replied, “curious eyes never run dry in my experience.”

Assange is charged with conspiracy to commit computer intrusion and is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison. Actual sentences for federal crimes are typically less than the maximum penalties. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after taking into account the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

OK, well this seems to tell me that they want what is in Assanges head a lot more than they want info on the Manning case. They threw in that last bit about what his expected sentence could be on purpose. Assange will likely spill the beans on everything he knows in exchange for no jail time.

I had to laugh at bimbo Pamela Anderson's comments! She should shut her disease infested pie hole and stick to something she actually knows something about, pole smoking. But, I digress.

I predict this is going to blow up (more than it already has). I can already see the UK running for cover saying it wasn't just the skipping bail which led to his arrest, but that the US also wants in on extradition charges. (how convenient, right?)

How much you want to bet the US drops those extradition requests?? There's probably some pretty juicy stuff in those emails and cables...stuff a certain regime who's reign spanned from 2008-2016 would really rather not have see the light of day!

How much you want to bet Assange turns up dead from some mystery illness, suicide or "accident" in the coming days?

This is gonna get interesting, folks! Really interesting. Just wait.

Julian Assange is currently in Westminster Magistrates' Court where he has been found guilty of skipping bail , he will be sentenced in Crown Court at a later date.

Assange was told he is now accused under section six, not section seven, of the Bail Act and must re-enter his plea.

When asked if he still denied the charge, Assange replied: "I'm a bit curious as to why there's been this sudden change".

The judge explained: "The computer produced the wrong section."

It would be golden if Trump pardons him. The left would have to have the government change their diapers.

Why does that even makes sense? Obama pardoned Manning.

Those are the exact words I said to my husband this morning.

I think they are going to say he was insane and committed suicide.. we'll see.

If you are calm then UK police will cuff hands to front generally, I've had both, only hands to back when I resisted.

And yet Manning currently sits in solitary.

Funny timing on that.

Do not know what to believe. On Patriot XM radio I think a guy by the last name of Koslowski said that it has been reported that Assange has been working independently against the US by providing information to our enemies. Now in summary this Koslowski said that it could have cost American lives in the CIA and troops on the ground. He connected this with Chelsa Manning.

PLEASE DO NOT ATTACK ME!! I am just reporting what I heard on XM Patriot radio as I was driving into work. It has left me not knowing what to believe. What say you all>

a reply to: uncommitted

Yeah, he did, and wouldn't it be interesting to see that Manning was guilty of a hell of a lot more serious crimes than what Obama pardoned him for...and Obama knew it!!

All I can say is Assange better drop the bomb with the cypher key now, while he's still alive! He doesn't have much time left, in my opinion!

a reply to: JAGStorm

If Assange dies in custody, then all hell will officially break loose.

I only bite when bitten.


Just the name of XM Patriot radio sends shivers down my spine , I would filter any information coming from a source with "patriot" in its name.

wonder what the response will be from the horde of ATS members who swore he was dead ?

What..,

A fact which I'm sure is not lost to Mr. Assange himself...if you catch my drift.

This is where the rubber meets the road! He's crossed the Rubicon.
